Quacks Don't Echo (They Don't Have Chips Either)

Martin Quack is all but out of the EPT Prague Main Event after his {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} ran into the {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} of Bulat Bikmetov. The board ran out {k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and when the chips were counted out, Quack was left with just 600 chips.

These went into the pot the very next hand with {K-Spades}{3-Spades} and beat {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} when he hit a king on the turn and three on the river. He is now practically swimming in chips; he has 800 of them!

Toth is Toast

Richard Toth - Eliminated
Richard Toth - Eliminated

After a series of bets and raises, Richard Toth was all in and at risk preflop holding {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. He was well ahead of the {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} of Jason Helder, who won the PokerStars Sunday Million back in October, but the board came {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

Toth hit the rail, while Helder is now above 300,000 chips.

O'Dea Nails The Flop; Laments The River

Eoghan O'Dea
Eoghan O'Dea

Andreas Samuelsson opened for 3,200 from early position only to have Eoghan O'Dea three-bet to 7,500 from the cutoff. After the button and both blinds folded, Samuelsson four-bet to 18,500, and then O'Dea thought for a long time before moving all in for roughly 80,000. Samuelsson made a quick called and O'Dea discovered the bad news.

Showdown
Samuelsson: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}
O'Dea: {J-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

O'Dea was in bad shape, but that changed on the {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop as he nailed a flush. However, Samuelsson hit a set and could retake the lead if the board paired. The {Q-Hearts} turn didn't do it, but the {4-Diamonds} river did. O'Dea didn't seem too surprised, and he made his exit just shy of Level 13.

Koutoupas Hunts ElkY

Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier has seen his stack cut in two after a clash with Sotirios Koutoupas.

The action folded to ElkY in late position and he opened to 3,200. Koutoupas was to ElkY's left and he three-bet to 7,200, but that was not the end of the betting. With the action back on him, ElkY four-bet to 13,300 and Koutoupas called.

ElkY lead out for 8,800 chips on an {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop, a bet that his opponent called. The {A-Clubs} on the turn did not deter ElkY from betting and the Frenchman upped the ante to 13,400. Again, Koutoupas called.

The {J-Hearts} river saw ElkY check and his opponent tapped the table and checked behind.

ElkY: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Koutoupas: {A-Spades}{5-Spades} and the winning hand.

Pick a Card, Any Card

Keven "stamdogg" Stammen and Mark "dipthrong" Herm were heads up on a board of {10-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Stammen checked to Herm, who tossed out 9,000, and Stammen check-folded.

"Pick one," Herm told Stammen, holding his two cards out.

"The one closest to you," Stammen answered.

Herm flipped over the {10-Diamonds}, and Stammen was excited because he picked the right card.

Ready and Willing

Luciana Manolea
Luciana Manolea

Mathias Will and Luciana Manolea were heads up on a flop of {2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Manolea checked, and Will tossed out 3,500. Manolea called.

The turn was the {10-Hearts}, both players checked, and a second ten - the {10-Spades} - fell on the river. Manolea thought for nearly half a minute before checking, and Will took a bit of time himself before firing 11,000.

Manolea tank-called.

Will flipped over {a-Spades}{7-Spades} for tens and sevens, and Manolea mucked her hand.
